8o I've never heard of a 6 year old with a pimple... sounds kind of weird though. I guess it must happen though... cause it did. :) Hope that no more show up. :)

Diane... :wave:

Dd has had a whitehead or two before - I chalk it up to just a clogged pore, not washing in that area real well --- it's usually gone the next day.

Last Christmas my 6 yo ds had one and my 8 yo dd had 2. Both my kids get them every once in a while. I hope it doesn't mean they'll get them twice as bad later.

Both of my kids have gotten very small ones. They don't look like pimples as I remember them from my teens so I don't think they have anything to do with hormones. Just a clogged pore or tiny hair. I sometimes get tiny ones on my upper arms. I think those are tiny hairs. If it's at the hairline I'd suspect an ingrown hair.
